How to Continue When 25 Tool Call Limit is Reached

Discussion
1

When Cursor notifies me with:

“Note: we default stop the agent after 25 tool calls. Please ask the agent to continue manually.”

What should I say to resume the task? Would “continue this task” work, or is there a better command?

Also, I’d love to see an option to set a custom limit or even allow unlimited tool calls. Is this something that could be added in the future?

Old Cursor version (pre 0.46) had. this. you can write: continue.
Newer cursor versions 0.46+ have an option right under the chat output to resume.

Both options cost a request (same amount as the initial request, since you continue with detailed steps). The actual request count will depend on the model you used. see Models in Cursor Docu.

Can I exceed this limit (25 tool calls)?

No, as the docu shows and the Cursor IDE tells you to. You can continue/resume the process.

you click on “Resume” in the chat or if your version is older and does not have that, then you can type new message ‘continue’ or similar.
